Recreational League

The Recreational League is geared toward learning soccer skills, good sportsmanship and having fun. All who register are placed on a team and are entitled to play a minimum of half of each game they attend. Teams in this league are co-ed. Games are played at our soccer complex located in Nonotuck Park.

Pioneer Valley Junior Soccer League

The Pioneer Valley Junior Soccer League (PVJSL) is also geared to learning soccer skills, good sportsmanship behavior and having fun. However, the level of participation and competition is much greater. There can be tryouts and depending on the number of children interested in participating, there can be cuts to the teams. Games are played at home and away. PVJSL plays during both the Fall and Spring seasons. Additional fees are required for tournament play.
